Treat Bags and a Tutorial

I just did not have time to sew costumes for my children this year, but I think I made up for it a bit with these fun treat bags. They are really fast to put together, and, unlike most costumes, we can put them up to use again next year!

The design allows them to sit open like this when you pull the handles apart so that you can see the goodies inside:
But when you pick the bag up and pull the handles together, the bag closes up like this to keep treats safe and sound inside. Pretty cool, huh?
Ready to make one or two or a dozen? You can find the tutorial right here: Treat Bag Tutorial. If you sew up any, please be sure to share pictures. I would love to see!

I love this, it’s so simple!
I think I’m going to make a huge version for myself to carry my teaching stuff in. I have wanted a bag that will hold itself open when I put it down and close up when I carry it over my shoulder for ages, and you’ve inspired me.
Thanks
Claire
